PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
There's a threatening current sweeping the soul of our society. In fact
it has become a sickening trend many of us adopt when we're at our odds or fail
to do our best. Children, the youth and adults say it in self defense, for fear
of punishment or to save themselves from disgrace. The 'it's not my fault"
or the blame game syndrome is killing the sense of responsibility in our
society. Barbara Tuchman, a celebrated historian rightly said what we most need
in this century is "probably personal responsibility" for our actions
and inactions. Maybe we should take more responsibility for our behaviour and our performance and bear in mind that doing so doesn't mean society must
forgive you because it's "not your
fault." May God help us do our best today.
